CyggyMarlin Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 If and when we get all our starting pitchers back, what do we do with Poteet? Pen? If so, what role / inning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Elieser comes back, Poteet should slide nicely into that #5 spot for now. Sixto and Ed still a ways off it seems, so Poteet may be here a little while. Ed probably comes up as a reliever, and that'll more than likely be in August, I'd imagine. But if we're gonna keep Poteet up, definitely a roaming spot starter kind of long relief guy. Just not sure who we'd send down. But there's always injuries that happen, so ... we'll see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they all make it back, gonna be a nice problem to have... Cody would be good in a 6th/7th inning role, maybe an occasional 8th when bullpen needs a rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishFan95 Posted May 23, 2021 Author Share Posted May 23, 2021 At 93 pitches, I image that is it for Poteet. Although if I was manager I would consider him going 8. It's not like any of those innings were very stressful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
